to-day santa gave to me a packet of button shaped board die cuts, thank-you santa
Copy pasting from the other thread DD has let me open mine now and I got a selection of matchbooks most of which were in Christmas colours and will turn up in my Shimelle journal! One of them was bigger than the others and had papers in it as well. What a fab start!
DD is now rooting through looking for tomorrow's parcel!

I am actually quite choked up here ......... my HOOOOGGGGGEEEEE Box is filled with so many goodies ....... everything wrapped in red and silver and tinselly strips in red and silver all in the box to make it harder to search for the pressies ..... choccie coins and santa's alll loose in the box ...... a gorgeous hand made Snowman advent calendar with choccies for each day .... (if you made that santa you are soooooo talented) ......... and what really touched me the most is there are pressies for Kane (my gorgeous dog!!) and can I just say ........ that is all before I open day 1........
I am going to take a piccie of the box .... and seeing as I can't upload to here as its a works PC and I don't have broadband .... I am going to make a special trip to my friends over the weekend to use her broadband and then I can upload the piccie .... I love my box sooooooo much ..... thank you secret santa (I am sure I know who you are!!! :))
oh ..... BTW ..... on the first day of Christmas my secret Santa got for me .... a tin of assorted buttons including lots of doggie bits and pieces...... how beautiful! :)

Santa is so happy that you are all enjoying your presents .....especially you Liz ...... he knows just how good you have been ..... I got a message from the elves this morning to tell you that the bigger matchbook is actually a matchbook album for all ur scrummy Christmas pictures ........ they also wanted to let you know that they didn't put anything in the matchbooks so you could use them to journal or add ur own quotes (they wrote you a note but forgot to include it in the parcel!!! typical elves).......... hope you enjoy the rest of ur goodies ..... the final preps are being made to ur 2nd parcel and this will be posted early next week .... But I will make sure the post elf keeps you compeltly informed :wub:

I didn't take any notice of the postcode as I wanted to guess from the pressies. I think mine must be an alterer to send a tin of playing cards! It's what I would send an alterer!

Well cherry its not me lolol
bumpybecky
01-12-2006, 03:06 PM
you're not being much of a detective are you Cherry? :lol:
I suspect my Santa must live nearby as my parcel was delivered in person, or should that be elfson? :lol:
So I've ruled out Ally as I know she's in the Highlands of Scotland (where it snows all year round I think!). There are several sneaky people who haven't got their location under their names though - that makes it much harder.
bevvie
01-12-2006, 03:10 PM
ohhh i just noticed something so cute about my box ..... my labels are addressed to auntie betty!!! that is soooo cool!! Someone really has been stalking me ..... will just let you know SS why I am called auntie Bettie .... I go and stay with Suffolk scrapper for the CC's and Cherry's darling daughetr calls me aunty bev ..... well cause cherry had called me bevvie so much (cos of on here) that her daughter got a bit confused and called me autie betty ....... it has kind of stuck lol
My parcel also includes lots of mini crackers ..... I think they are for pulling rather than with pressies in them but I will wait and see!! :)
bevvie
01-12-2006, 03:11 PM
Becky there may also be a few that have changed there location to confuse you all ;)
Hypatia
01-12-2006, 03:34 PM
Hmmm, Should I point out that it wasn't exactly difficult for me to ensure the bits I've mailed to various people..... went from two completely different post codes? Hundreds of miles apart? And if someone had asked me to deliver a package in person and had it mailed to me I'd have been happy to :) Sheesh one year I had stuff mailed from a different country to confuse the issue!
Just to point out that having a post code doesn't mean you've tracked Santa down yet <G>

but leighton buzzard is nowhere near enfield? or is it? I don't know :lol: I'm sure enfield is miles away :D
I think I know who your Santa is though Cherry ;) I'm open to bribes :lol:
and do you know, it had never occurred to me that someone might swap and get someone else to mail your parcel :lol: I guess those of you to go to proper real life crops (not cybercrops) will have lots of like minded scrapping pals who would be willing to post for you :lol:
